Started a course to learn programming in C#

[stefan nesic]

Hello people,

After finishing a short introductory course in Java, i am now learning C#!
i am introducing myself on the C# and .NET subforum, because i might need help later on, as i did with Java.

for those interested, after this i am going  for the Oracle Certified Associate (OCA) Java SE8 Programmer I, with another 2 month course leading up to it!

Why such an old version? Java 8 came out in 2014, and is therefore almost 8 years old. While it's still a supported LTS version, there have been two other LTS versions after it, 11 and 17. For 17 there is no certification yet, but there is for 11. Even though it is more complex due to the module system, I'd go for that one.

Hello Rob,

I have not been able to find a online course that gets you ready for version(?) 11 online, with an exam in the Netherlands.
I have found out that after passing the exam for version 8, there is an upgrade exam you can take.

The additional knowledge you need, is available in a book for self study.

I passed my (ancient ) exams using just the study guides and experience.

At work people use the study guides, Enthuware practice exams and perhaps Udemy courses. Most pass the first time, so perhaps that's something you can look into.
